Moho Animation Forum

Hi,

I tried to export the following animation to a .swf file by using the "variable line withs" feature, but this happened:

http://www.intoarch.com/turtle-2.swf

Without the feature the animation works:

http://www.intoarch.com/turtle-1.swf

Is that a bug or should I do some settings somewere ?

There is a bug, but I don't know if it's in Moho or Flash. Variable-width lines can create big SWF files, and there's a page where Macromedia describes some problems with Flash, where it can start behaving erratically when you create too many shapes.

There is a workaround, however. Select the File->Project Settings command in Moho. In the dialog that appears, turn on the checkbox labeled "Extra SWF frame". This will cause an extra, blank frame to be exported at the end of the SWF movie. I can't tell you why, but this often causes the problem to go away. Weird.

Thanks a lot - it works :)
